Last weekend, we gave you the heads-up that John Carpenter's milestone slasher flick Halloween was going to return to theaters next month.

While we await further details on its re-release, the team at HalloweenMovies.com revealed the official one-sheet for this cool event.

The site reports this poster was "designed by artist Austin Hinderliter, marks the return of THE SHAPE to cinema lobbies across the country, presenting the ultimate evil in shadow and autumnal oranges."

We'll keep you posted on further release specifics...

Great idea. It might help remind moviegoers what a real horror movie can be.

I will go in a heartbeat if this playing near me.

But i won't go to NYC to see it.

The city gets a band, not a movie, at this age.

We can't allow incidents like that to keep us from enjoying ourselves.

Screenvision, a national leader in cinema advertising sales, services and content distribution, has teamed up with Compass International Pictures and Trancas International Films to bring John Carpenter’s immortal 1978 classic, Halloween, back to the big screen.

This nationwide release, beginning October 25th with select showings through October 31st, will be the widest distribution the film has seen since originally shocking audiences in 1978.

This cinema scare classic will be presented in a striking, new HD transfer and 5.1 audio.

Screenvision’s presentation of Halloween will also include an exclusive documentary short from Justin Beahm entitled You Can't Kill the Boogeyman: 35 Years of Halloween.

The documentary focuses on the undeniable impact the film, and central figure Michael Myers, have had on culture and the genre.

“We are thrilled to bring John Carpenter’s original 'Halloween' back to the screen after almost 35 years,” says series producer Malek Akkad.

“We are excited for fans from coast to coast to finally get the ultimate theatrical experience.”

Darryl Schaffer, EVP of Exhibitor Relations, Screenvision said:
